there is a box on electrum receive page called
"requested amount" mBTC
I left it blank, is that correct?

thanks zend7. I went with a site using paypal and 1% above market BEST-BTC.com
local bitcoins was high price and alot of work, plus I live in an area of US that makes it difficult...nearest chase bank is 100mls.
I tried LibertyX, but also nearest location to me did not sell after all...
so I went with what I could find...please leave any feedback
